I do find it funny that there have been more emails discussing the topic of too many emails than the were for the original discussion...
That said, this is an email discussion list, and it's really the best way to make sure everyone sees the comments. A forum or IRC channel doesn't do this unless people are there looking. Although there was a flurry or emails one day, they were all very short and didn't take that long to get through, and I wouldn't expect this to be a common occurrence except for on major topics that crop up once in a while. So even with more members, an email list would be my preference. - Ken ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf of [email protected] [[email protected]] Sent: Friday, January 04, 2013 5:44 AM To: SYN/HAK discussion list Subject: Re: [SH-Discuss] Synhak incentives \¥/ *So we'll have to work on that.

( I'm kidding) There has to be a more organized way. Exspeacally if we get more members.
